# In-game store

`/loja` brings your store into the server. The player types the command and sees the
categories and products for sale, at the current price, without leaving the game.

After picking a product, they have two ways out:

- **Buy with balance**: pays the whole purchase with the store balance and receives it right
  away, with the same rules as the website (limit per player, stock, promotion, VIP and
  announcements);
- **Pay on the website**: gets the product link in the chat. The link already puts the
  product in the cart.

> [!NOTE]
> Buying with balance needs the account [linked](/en/plugins/linking/) to this player, so
> nobody spends someone else's balance with the same nick. Many purchases in a row by the
> same nick block for a few minutes.

## Set it up

In **Plugin > In-game store**:

![The In-game store screen with the options and the categories](shots/plugins-shop.webp)

| Option | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Turn on /loja** | Off, `/loja` only says the in-game store is off |
| **Buy with balance in game** | Off, `/loja` only sends the link |
| **Products each server shows** | **Only the ones delivered on this server**, or **All store products**, each delivered on its own server |
| **Categories in game** | Uncheck the categories that should not show |

Click **Save the in-game store**.

Digital, inactive and link-only products never show on `/loja`.

## Texts and command

- The menu and chat texts are in **Plugin > Texts**, in the **In-game store** group. See
  [Announcements and texts](/en/plugins/announcements/#plugin-texts).
- The permission is `hystore.loja`, open to everyone.
- If another plugin on the server already uses `/loja`, use `/hystore:loja` or
  [rename the command](/en/plugins/linking/#rename-a-command).

> [!TIP]
> Keep buying with balance on and promote the store balance: the player buys in the middle
> of a match, without opening the browser.
